"Nobody wakes up drawing masterpieces!" I tell myself this a lot and it's TRUE! My friends will comment on my sketches and I just tell them, "You think Picasso just woke up one day and painted a 10,000 dollar piece? That ain't how it works." And congrats on 50k btw!💖🥳🎉
yes patience is key!!! i gave up on my art for two years and finally picked up a pencil again! Focusing on small parts you are frustrated with is important! i truly believe in practicing the stuff you are scared of because that is when you will improve the most!!
I stopped drawing for a few years and started drawing again about a year ago. And I can already see so much improvement! I wished I never stopped, but I was so damn frustrated haha
liax. yeah i know how that feels.. i have an old channel that was taken down... and i have to dtart over again... my art never fully recovered.. can you critique my art vids please
I think scaling down has helped me improve a lot. I've always bought big sketch pads because that's what I'm used to, but I have been having so much fun drawing in a smaller sketch book. Just as well, thinking of each piece as an experiment -- having a growth mindset and critiquing myself -- has really helped me take the pressure off myself to produce something amazing every time I lay pencil to paper. You've given spot on advice here, Temi.
hello dantep. say bro. do you do art. its good to hear your arts improving... but mines kinda stuck in the mud. feels like i need a helping hand. can you atleast critique my art video please
For me as I have no real intention of becoming an 'artist' I'm just having fun, I actually love every piece of artwork I do because it's like an adventure.
Another thing to avoid is over studying. "Practice" is always the last thing people want to hear but the fact of the matter is theres no amount of books, videos, etc about art improvement that can help you if you don't bust out the materials and start drawing!
I have so many ✨ R U S H E D ✨ designs that it made me feel sad. Trying to work on my tattoo portfolio as slow as I can so it’s the best it can be. So I hope I am able to improve and try my best 💖 Thank you for the advice!
hey do a vid of your tattoo designs? good to hear your doing something that your really passionate.. my art vidz kinda suck.. maybe you can throw some tips.. check my vidz out
Yasssss! Love the video! A tip I used was taking my time! My old work used to take 30 minutes! I recently started taking more time like 6 to 7 hours a piece and there turning out so much better! My fav day is Tuesday now!
I used to draw when I was younger basically cars and buildings I recently got interested in drawing portraits I drew one and failed miserably So this video is very motivating. So thank you.awesome video I will be watching your tutorials
failing is a process. we just need to stand up and keep following what your passionate about.. but my art still sucks ahahah. hope someone will critique my vidz
SOLID advice to hear even after many years as a portrait and illustration artist! The patience and practice = being able to bridge to gap of ugly phase to completion! 👍 Also your artwork is stunning!
You are like an artist bestfriend that i never have. I get depressed with how slow i'm progressing and i always seek out with my friends who don't draw and they be giving the wrong advices. I watched your vid about bad art advices gurl i can relate. Now i'm a new subscriber😄 You are like a sunshine and uplifting. Now i'm motivated to learn art and be optimistic.
This was so helpful! Some people need more time like me, you need to take some time to chill and think about what there gonna do next! Even if you don’t have a lot of nice and expensive crayon, paints or tools, all you need is a pen and/or a crayon and a paper that’s all you need to keep in mind. Challenge your self to different things!
I found myself laughing when you said a piece always looks the best right after you've drawn it :D for me it's usually the opposite, especially with quick sketches; I can't bear to look at them right away, but a few days later I'm able to not *only* see the mistakes and often find they're good in some way that my more overworked pieces always lack. Of course, a year or so later I start noticing mistakes that I wasn't aware of at the time, but I think my eye is always so far ahead of my skill that I'm never truly happy with anything I make.
I have been drawing since age 9 and everything you say is so true 👍 I major in pencil drawings but am looking forward to start using pencil crayons for protriets Trying to learn all I can from your channel thanks Temi😊
Great video Temi 👏🏼👏🏼 I do have to say that, for me, when drawing or painting realism, the bigger the piece the easier it is... it does take more time but I find it so much easier to get an awesome result full of details 😊
#8 Enjoy what you do. If you don't enjoy or love what you do, no amount of learning or practice will make good art. #9 Embrace your style. People cannot copy each other. They have a unique style of making a drawing or a painting. Your portrait drawing will be different than my illustrations. But each of us have our own unique ways of drawing. Good video.
hi i just found you !!! love your content, you have so much content to give , start your own weekly classes on how to shade !! you explain things so well you should be a teacher
"Effort is what makes u talented or smart" This is so true! I've been drawing for 5-4 years and when I started it was so ugly but rn I'm drawing and I'm putting alot of effort and it goes to show! BTW I'm 11
I believe it doesn't matter what we do in life, we must always practice what we do. Everything right down to how we speak. I find that when I do not practice my foreign languages, I cannot maintain the fluency. If I fail to practice my music instruments, I cannot find the note automatically. If I fail to color, I cannot remember the layered sequence of how I got an exact color. So, I completely agree with what you are saying here! It's been almost over a year since I last used my camera before Covid, so I am having to remember what each menu means.
This is gonna sound super weird but I love your accent😂 also I just came across your Channel when searching for art tips and it's been really helpful so far, thank you ☺️
Jeez!!! What an excellent video... I feel like you're staring right into my soul! You don't know me!!! LOL... But, everything you said... You are talking to me!!!
Hey Miss Temi, I had an idea for a video! You could do a draw with me series where you would find photos and give a tutorial on how to draw it. It may be kinda similar to your other videos tho. Welp, hope you have an amazing day.
Thank you, Temi! Youre very encouraging. As someone who has given up on art several times (I majored in art in college too!), Ive finally have the right mindset abt art. Your 7 tips are excellent!
hello jc. say bro. do you do art. its good to hear your arts improving... but mines kinda stuck in the mud. feels like i need a helping hand. can you atleast critique my art video please
I've been consistently drawing for 5 yearsish and I have improved so much and can see I'm improving faster than ever So a small tip is keep some of your worst and best peices even if you later on think their bad because you'll have a clear visual of how much you've grown
about the supplies: if you feel like your supplies are not getting your where your want to be, really try investing in something better. I used to use random pencils I had from school and I could not get them to blend. that was very frustrating. I really wanted to try out prismacolors and while yes, they are not cheap but: I have so much fun drawing with them and draw now a lot more, just because I have so much fun using them. so if you really feel like the material you use is restricting you, I know it can be a investment at first, but It can be very much worth it
I appreciate your videos a lot. I've done realism for years but only with graphite. Learning colored pencils has been fun and humbling. The growth mindset is great perspective to have for many aspects in life.
I really watched this to send to a friend who is starting back up with her love of drawing but I just wanted to say that this was such a great video! Very inspiring and anyone on this artist journey you got this!!!
I love your videos so much! The way you describe your process is so easy for me to understand. Really appreciate your perspective because it’s sometimes difficult for me to relate to the “free spirit” types as much as I love them it’s just not how I learn!
I start with the eyes if my subject has them, if the eyes dont look right I havent wasted time on the rest and can start again. I want to try pan pastels, but nope too much money lol I will stick with using solvents when needed. practice pieces can def be small but i find working larger works best for me (ok takes forever, but its only my back im killing by doing it lol)
hello happydays. say bro. do you do art. its good to hear your arts improving... but mines kinda stuck in the mud. feels like i need a helping hand. can you atleast critique my art video please
@happydays if you still want help picking between pan pastels and markers, I’d say it depends on budget. A pack of ohuhu markers would work as a base and is cheaper to buy a larger range of than pan pastels. Pan pastels would be easier to blend and overall easier to work with if you have a larger budget.
I’m currently using graphite and want to transition to color but I have no idea how. It sounds simple but every time I attempt to it looks cartoon like. Maybe a future video on that?
Temi should be called ''Temi of truth'' because everything she said is true. sometimes if you have large paper use a ruler (if you have one) to separate the page in to different pieces!
Tbh Temi's tirades is the only way I know it's Tuesday lol
Hahahah me and you both!
funmi can you fix my art.. (check my stuff please)

@pogz1 I also have a yotube channel we're I can teach people about art too.
I stopped drawing for a few years and started drawing again about a year ago. And I can already see so much improvement! I wished I never stopped, but I was so damn frustrated haha
Your “bad” is my “good”.....and your “good” is my camera quality (it’s AMAZING)
Lol
leah can you fix my art.. (check my stuff please)

Same but i dont like comparing myslef , and you shouldnt either cuz comparing isnt good
I wanted to say the saaaaame !! XDD This is even better than my camera quality

“Why do I think I can draw? I should just give up and start over.”
- literally me every day.
Never think that , you can draw , everyone can draw

It's temi's consistency for me! Also congrats on 50k!
consistency is kinda i lack.. i get burned out easily.. my art vidz sucks.. i hope someone will critique my video..
Can you pleaseee make a video on how to draw proportionally, i really struggle with the proportions and at the end it looks unrealistic😣
